Keldan Video 8M 11000lm CRI82 Modular Video Light
11,000-lumen modular video light with a soft 90° beam
The Keldan Video 8M 11000lm CRI82 is the powerhouse of Keldan's modular system — 11,000 lumens of natural 5,600 K light packed into a head just 12 cm across. Swiss-made and self-contained, it runs on an air-travel-legal 99 Wh Li-Ion battery and adds only 0.14 kg in the water. Because the head, reflector and LED module all unscrew, the same light can be re-tasked for wide video, tight macro or scientific narrow-band work simply by swapping parts. A wide-spread dome lens delivers a soft 90° beam with smooth edges and no hot spots.
Consider the Video 8M 11000lm CRI82 if you:
- Want one of the most powerful lights available at this size and weight
- Shoot wide reef and wreck scenes and want a soft, hot-spot-free 90° beam
- Value a modular body you can re-task with different LED modules and reflectors
- Need an air-travel-legal battery (UN38.3 / under 100 Wh) for international trips

Why the Video 8M 11000lm
LED technology with outstanding efficiency
The LED delivers a very natural white light at 5,600 K with a colour rendering index of CRI 82 (Ra). Variable power offers five settings across a 28 – 105 W range, so you can dial output to suit the scene and stretch runtime when you need it.
Soft 90° beam
A purpose-built optical design with diffuser and dome lens produces a very soft, wide 90° beam on land and in water alike. There are no hot spots and the edges fall off smoothly for even, natural-looking coverage.
Self-contained and simple
There is no separate battery canister to mount or cable to route. The included bracket fits straight onto standard arm systems such as Ultra Light arms, so the whole light goes together in seconds.
Tough, modular design
The LED cannot break and has an almost unlimited lifetime, while integrated over-temperature protection limits power to keep the housing within a safe range — so the light is safe to run briefly in air. The head, reflector and LED module unscrew for cleaning, servicing or re-tasking.
Travel-safe Li-Ion battery with charge display
The 99 Wh battery has passed the mandatory UN38.3 test required by IATA, certifying it for air transport, and sits below the 100 Wh limit. A protection circuit guards against over-discharge, deep discharge, over-current and short circuit, and a two-digit display shows remaining runtime (or charge time on the charger).
